Hi,I understand your concern.Is your blood pressure normal?If it is normal,the swelling in the private part is because of soreness of the pelvic joint.Some people may have difficulty in the movement of the joint causing discomfort ,pain and swelling in pregnancy.You need to rest the joint.put some ice packs on that area and take plain paracetamol tablets 650mg for reducing the inflammation.You can apply pain killer gels on it.Your gynecologist will guide you.This is not a very uncommon condition.Will settle down after delivery.
I hope I have helped you.
